Elegance is the balance between PROPORTION, EMOTION & SURPRISE.

I know what women want. They want to be beautiful.

Everybody has this idea: You have children, and your entire life is complete. That's how I imagine it. I imagine I'll have children and then my whole life will just seem complete.

Modernized by tin roofs and T-shirts, Third World poverty is no longer picturesque.

Super blessed & excited to be part of the Nickelodeon family! It's amazing to be on a network I grew up watching!

This is me. Take it or leave it.

I have a lot of girl friends who are very adept at making friends, and guys are just not.
